Statistics Monitoring

The built-in statistics module shows the consumption of billable resources across environment nodes. It helps analyse application load, adjust topology, predict future usage, and control infrastructure costs.

View Node Statistics

Statistics are available for application servers, load balancers, web servers, and database nodes.

1Locate the required node

Open the environment in the dashboard and find the instance or group of same-type nodes that you want to monitor.

2Click Statistics

Click the Statistics icon beside the selected node or node layer.

Open node statistics
Open the Statistics panel for the selected node or node layer.

Monitored Resources

RAMMemory consumption measured in MiB.
CPUProcessor load measured in MHz.
NetworkInternal and external traffic measured in MB.
DiskStored data measured in MB and I/O activity measured in IOPS.
  • RAM and CPU limits depend on the number of Cloudlets assigned to the container.
  • Disk capacity can be configured within the permitted range.
  • Network and IOPS limits are defined by the hosting provider.
  • The network restriction applies to external traffic rate in Mbps rather than total accumulated traffic.

Analyse Statistics

Use the top toolbar to change the displayed Interval and Duration. Individual resource sections can also be enabled or disabled to focus on specific information.

Resource statistics graphs
Review CPU, RAM, network, disk, and IOPS statistics with selectable intervals and durations.

Hover over graph points to view values for a particular time frame. The collected information can be used to analyse resource consumption, estimate future cost, and decide whether the environment should be scaled or optimised.

Load alerts can be configured to send email notifications when resource consumption rises above or falls below a specified percentage.

Statistics Collection and Aggregation

The platform collects statistics every minute and retains the detailed one-minute data for one hour. This supports accurate pay-per-use charging.

After one hour, the values are aggregated into hourly blocks according to the resource type:

Aggregation MethodResources
Sum of all valuesCPU, Network, Disk IOPS, and Disk I/O
Maximum valueRAM and Disk

I/O Usage Monitoring

Input/Output Operations per Second is a common storage-performance measurement. It helps evaluate how efficiently a container handles simultaneous read and write operations without performance degradation.

Windows limitation: IOPS statistics are not currently provided for Windows-based nodes.

IOPS data is shown in the Disk statistics section using the graph’s right-side axis. Other resource sections can be disabled to focus on disk and I/O activity.

Disk and IOPS statistics graph
Disk usage and IOPS are displayed on separate axes in the same graph.

The IOPS threshold is defined by the hosting provider and is shown as a red dotted line. Reaching this limit can negatively affect container performance.

  • Add more servers when the workload should be distributed.
  • Optimise the application or its storage usage.
  • Review repeated peaks to identify inefficient operations.

Disk and IOPS Details

Hover over a point in the Disk/IOPS graph to display:

  • Date and time when the statistics were collected.
  • Disk — storage currently used by the container.
  • Disk space limit — maximum permitted stored-data amount.
  • IOPS — number of I/O operations during the selected interval.
  • IOPS limit — maximum permitted I/O operations during that interval.
Disk and IOPS graph tooltip
Hover over a graph point to review disk usage, IOPS, and the applicable limits.
The chart legend uses one Limit line for both Disk and IOPS. The actual thresholds are read from the left axis for disk space and the right axis for IOPS.

IOPS Limit and Interval

The displayed IOPS limit changes with the selected interval. For example, a one-minute limit of 6,000 operations becomes 360,000 operations when the interval is changed to one hour:

Calculation: 6,000 × 60 minutes = 360,000 I/O operations per hour.
Hourly IOPS limit
The IOPS limit is adjusted according to the selected statistics interval.

This provides an accurate view of current disk load and allows storage activity to be monitored over different time ranges.
